Facilities

Useful resources include internet and printing facilities, baby changing facilities, dedicated medical staff, reduced mobility services and play areas for children. Once you pass through security you will enter the loop, an area packed with shops which includes duty free shopping. More info on the loop can be found here ( http://www.theloop.ie/ ). Once you’ve passed through the shops you’ll find a range of restaurants that offer top quality food and drink services for you to avail of while you wait for your flight.

Security

Security in Terminal 1 is located on the first floor departures level. Airport authorities recommend that you arrive 90 minutes in advance of your scheduled departure time to allow time for queues at the security check and check in desks. We advise allowing an additional 30 minutes to return your rental car.

The list of prohibited items includes sharp or pointed items including tools, knives, darts and scissors; flammables; and sports equipment such as cricket bats and billiard cues. The main thing that slows people down is the EU regulation to do with liquids which states that you should place all containers of liquids and gels into a single re-sealable clear plastic bag no larger than 20cm x 20cm. EU regulations prohibit the containers from exceeding 100ml in volume. Having this prepared in advance and also having your electronics such as laptops and tablets close to hand as you will be asked to remove these from your luggage. We have put together a more in depth explanation about prohibited items and liquid regulations here.

There’s a taxi service found right outside the terminal as well as a choice of car rental companies in Terminal 1 where you’ll find CarHire.ie which has a desk partnership with Europcar offering you a great fully inclusive service at Dublin Airport T1.
